Region’s Main Deities
Hi bestie 💓
Hi Bestie 😍
Sun tea is used to connect with the Sun, a Sun deity, or to feel the energy of the Sun within and or around you.
This is my Sun tea recipe:
Bay leaves
Orange peels
Black tea
Lemon juice
Honey
First, you boil the bay leaves and orange peels in a pot of water. I don’t count the minutes, I usually wait until the water is a greenish color. Once that’s done, pour the tea into a cup with some black tea (I usually use 2 packs of black tea to make it strong). Squeeze some lemon juice and use honey as a sweetener. If you don’t have honey, it’s okay to just use sugar and it’s also okay to use store bought lemon juice.
I usually make my tea pretty strong (I like it that way) and I tend to measure by eyeballing and tasting instead so sorry about there not being a precise measurement for the bay leaves and orange peels to use.
So yeah, that’s my sun tea recipe. Pretty simple and tasty and a good way to connect to the Sun or deity.

I’ve written a post about connecting with human spirits, but now I would like to focus on finding and calling to non-human spirits. This is not a guide for deities, because the way you approach and worship different gods from different pantheons ranges so much. As a Hellenic Polytheist, I know for a fact I couldn’t tell you what you need to know for every open culture. If you’re looking for that kind of post, check religious blogs!
For this post, I will not focus on malevolent OR good-natured entities. This will be primarily about all entities as a whole, and how you decide to use this guide is up to you, not me. Towards the end i will provide some basic information about finding negative entities in particular, for those of you who are curious or are looking to come into contact with one. However, I don’t recommend it. This is purely educational, and if you make a dumb decision, that’s on you.
You can explore your surroundings in the astral realm to find spirits, communicate with them, and build relationships. This is probably the most direct and least expensive and physical method for contacting entities. You can read more on astral travel on many blogs, including my own. Once you have a firm grasp on that, you can begin to actually seek them out and such. Here are my tips:
If you’re looking for particular spirits, find out where they are generally spotted. For fae, you may check the forest. For naiads, you could try the ocean. For death-related spirits, like psychopomp, hospitals and cemeteries may be your best bet. Honestly, wherever you think they’re likely to be, check. To travel to these places, I suggest:
Learning where the nearest place is to you, or where the place you want to travel to is
Finding a taglock for that place and holding it while you project
Practice going to this place purely for the sake of seeing it, in the astral sense
Use doorways you create (and close when you’re done) to quickly get there
Once you learn how to do the above, you can search for and communicate with any entities that are there. Always be prepared to be ignored, attacked, or tricked. Spirits can be a bit iffy. Don’t get upset if it doesn’t work out at first.
You can continue seeing these spirits you meet by setting up times to see one another, or making plans for them to come to you. Be sure you are talking to the spirit you are wanting to, as many spirits can and do trick people. There are spells you can cast for an allseeing eye, so you will be able to determine if they are disguising themselves in anyway.
I recommend doing this for a month before inviting them into your space. This prevents you rushing into things with spirits you know nothing about.
If you struggle with using the astral realm as a method of contact, you can try physically locating entities. This is a bit tricky sometimes, as you’ll have to rely on divination for a majority of the time, until you can begin communicating with them through a telepathic link. I would wait to establish this link until you feel comfortable doing so, because it can lead to the spirit being with you pretty often. I would do a spirit vessel before this in most cases.
When you are physically going to a location, protection is vital. You’ll need to make sure nothing can follow you home if you don’t want them too, or attach themselves to your body. A simple way to do this is to bathe with a mix of gem elixir (clear quartz) and moon water. Add any herbs you know are safe and have is liar correspondences as well, I use lavender oil and mint leaves. This helps ward your body and cleanse it, as well ad your aura.
To communicate, bring a tool for divination. Runes, tarot cards, Scrying mirrors, etc all work well. Some people use ouija boards, but it is not necessary. Whatever you feel is cost accurate for you is perfect.
Begin asking questions such as:
What kind of spirit are you? (let them tell you what they are. Do not say “are you a ____?” because they could easily put on a mask and pretend to be exactly who you want to talk to.)
Are you interested in communicating with me on a regular basis?
What is your alignment? (Malevolent, neutral, good-natured, etc)
Where are you from?
When are you from?
How did you come to be?
Etc
Basically, communicate like you are meeting someone for the first time. Because you are. Be considerate, vocal, and kind. Don’t rush headlong into questions, start by talking about why you’re here, and maybe give them a nickname of yours if you aren’t comfortable sharing your real one. Have a nice chat, and try to make them comfortable with you. First impressions are important.
If after a while of meeting them in this location you want to bring them home, tell them so. You can begin discussing the possibility of making them a vessel, and maybe binding them to it if they are interested at all. I have posts about that on my blog as well.
These are for animals, plants, and earthen spirits. You can communicate with these types of spirits using their physical trigger objects, in this case, parts of their nonmetaphysical bodies.
Bones can be used with the permission of the spirit to contact them and be used as a vessel for them if that is what they want. Do not disturb these bones without asking first. Don’t even touch them. The very first thing you really need to do, before you even think about talking to any spirits, is to find out what kind of bones they are (which animal they belong to) and if you are even legally allowed to possess them. It is a big deal to mess with things like that, especially if they belong to an endangered or threatened species.
After that, you can communicate as directed with the location based spirit calling. It’s fairly simple and direct from then on.
What’s already around you? Do some divination and find out. Chances are, there is at least one nonhuman spirit nearby. See about contacting them if you don’t feel like they are dangerous, and always stay protected. Use whatever form of divination you wish, and keep up the communication to build a bond.
I told you I would put in a bit about this. You can’t say I haven’t warned you: negative entities are fully capable of causing harm on a sliding scale. Some can cause death. Some can cause injury. And some of them just like to screw with your head. If you aren’t prepared for this, don’t mess with them. Don’t call to a spirit if you can’t handle them. It’s as simple as that.
On the other hand, working with malevolent creatures can have its rewards. You can send them to people as curses, with their full consent and desire. You can learn things from them. You can do lots of things with them present, bit sometimes the risk outweighs the benefits. Be cautious, whatever you do. Here is a list of places I have come to discover are the breeding grounds for these entities:
Places where extreme violence has occurred
Places where death (especially violent or tragic death) has occurred
Places where mass amounts of death has occurred
Places where negative energy has been accumulated
Places that have been cursed
Abandoned, decaying, and destroyed places
Places where natural disasters have caused negative emotions en mass
Places where evil intent or thought has been carried out (sites for murders, homes of serial killers, etc)
Old buildings where underground crime has taken place
Places where malevolent humans lived
Of course, there are plenty more places where these entities thrive, including cemeteries (due to the large amount of death and sadness associated with it) and hospitals (for the same reason). To make contact, you can follow the rest of this guide, but with a ton of protection. Never invite anything home with you from these places if you get a really negative vibe, especially not the first time you meet them. If after a while you make the decision to do this, be cautious.
